Basically, what this league will be is a casual play league where you can play the Pokemon TCG through an IM/voice chat client against other members of PokeCommunity. I'll keep track of standings, but, other than bragging rights, there will be no prizes.

Tips on Learning How to Play

Ask questions in the TCG section here on PokeCommunity (the section this thread is a sticky in) if you need help learning how to play.

PokeGym's Rulings Compendium is also a good place to check out rulings on some cards if you're confused about anything.

Trainer Kits are good things to learn from, as well. The most recent made to my knowledge is the HGSS Trainer Kit, which comes with a few pretty good cards in HGSS Raichu and HGSS Gyarados.
